FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions about manufacturing and assembling wooden houses

• How can I order a house from you?
You should contact our exports department and learn the details about our products and ask the price of a certain product from our site you liked. If you want a fully or partially customized product you can order a new project as well. We can draw a project based on your wishes and imagination for a small fee. After we have a project either chosen by you or drawn by us or your architect, we will prepare a price list of what materials are necessary to complete the project. We discuss what you want to include or exclude then we can make a contract based on what is included. After the contract is settled and payment procedures are initiated, we will start preparing your package in the factory and build your house.

• How do you calculate the prices?
We don’t give random prices. We calculate the prices based on the materials we use. Most important item is the solid thick timber we use for walls and roofs because it is the main element to build the house. We calculate it in volume not in m2 (in cubic meter m3). That will be the major part of the price, then we calculate auxiliary wooden parts and other materials like fasteners, insulation etc. You can also choose to include floor, windows and doors.

One important note here: Our prices will be lower for same quality products you can order in Europe. When you see lower prices we advise you to check the wood quality they use. Some people don't pay attention to that and miss that cheap houses are sold with 60-90 mm thick low quality wood. Our minumum is about 140mm and goes up to 200mm+ premium. It is also important to know what is included in the price. Sometimes sellers only present part of the materials they use then you will be surprised by the final prices. It is a sales trick and we don't do that. We give you the price list directly.

• What about the transportation.
We work with professional transportation companies for years for our overseas deliveries and deliver our products anywhere around the world without issues. We have built from Europe to U.S.A. to Emirates or even as far as Australia.

• I have heard there are sanctions affecting your country.
These sanctions are not applied on our products. We sell wooden houses and this kind of product is not under sanctions. We recently got orders from EU countries such as Germany and built our products there without any single issue.

• I will deal first time with your company. How can I trust you?
We are the first CIS country (Post Soviet Country) which has managed to get EU standards certifications in Wooden House building and we are proud of it. We are a company with 18 years of history. We have built thousands of houses in Russia and Belarus and hundreds of houses overseas in multiple countries. Customer happiness is a priority. Our CEO who has founded the company, supervises every single project himself and we are always in communication with our customers. With the age of social media and internet no company has the luxury to lose trust because information is spread very quickly. We are aware of that and we do our best to deliver our promises when a contract is made.

• Can you design an X m2 project for me?
We have a professional team of architects who are specialized in designing wooden house projects. Their designs are so good that some of the designs have been sold over and over. We will do our best for you to have the wooden house of your dreams.

• What kind of wood do you use?
We use North European Pine. We cut them in thick clean pieces in our own factory. The trees are from Belarus, where winters can be very cold and summers hot. This means the wood is very resilient to changing weather extremes. Also, properties of pine tree make it resistant to bugs. These are not regular thin wood cuts. Our wood is reasonably thick, which makes the maintenance very easy. You don’t need to maintain it every couple of years like a cheap product you can check it back every ten years! Thickness also makes it very fire resistant. Our wood product has excellent temperature insulation properties.

• Should I choose round logs or glued laminated timber?
We work with both types. Round logs have been traditional way of building wooden houses for a long time. And because it looks natural some people still request it just for design features. But we almost always recommend using the newest technology timber house building by glued laminated timber blocks. Their advantages are so many. They are more resistant to cracks and aging, much easier to maintain, they wear way less, they isolate the temperature much better, they will grant much better structural integrity.

• Do you build the electrical, water, gas heating and gas systems in the house?
We don’t build these systems ourselves in our houses especially for exports because each country has its own regulations with electricity, gas, water etc. connections. This is why we leave this work for the local professionals.

But we make the house ready for these systems. It will be ready for connections. We also show the locations of the connections in our plans.

• Do you build the foundation?
We don’t build the foundation but we make sure that the foundation size and structure is correct so that the house will fit on the foundation perfectly. We include the drawings for the foundation. We also send an expert who may supervise the locals building the foundation and check it to make sure that everything is correct when the house package arrives.

• How is the house built when the materials arrive?
Our carpenters acquire visas according to the country they need to build. Most of them already have Schengen visas for example and they can freely travel around EU countries. Depending on the project we can send up to 1-3 carpenters. It also depends on your request. Sometimes we can send a single carpenter which supervises the local carpenters. Sometimes we send a team of 3 which will complete the project by themselves. The laborers should be paid daily by the customer dependent on the country they work in.

• Why should I choose your company?
We are a very experienced company; our products have same high quality with some of the best companies with much lower price thanks to lower production costs in our country and efficiency. Our proximity to Europe offering such good prices for great quality items and craftsmanship makes us a top choice.

We are a team of professionals who love our job. We are wooden house, wooden product enthusiasts ourselves. We dealt with wood since our childhood in North Europe and we understand the language of wood. We have beautiful designs inspired from countries and territories like Russia, Belarus, Finland, Germany, Baltic, Canada etc.

We are honest. We tell you directly what is possible and what is not possible. We do our best to understand you and make your dream come true without much struggle.

FAQ. Materials and technologies:

41. How is glued timber made?
The wood is dried to 10-12% humidity, then calibrated, the lamellae are glued in a press and profiled on a machine. The output is a durable, stable material.

42. How many layers are there in glued beams?
Usually 3-5 layers. The more layers, the higher the resistance to deformation and stress.

43. What kind of adhesive system is used?
We use certified adhesives of European production, without formaldehyde, approved for residential housing construction.

44. How does profiled timber differ from ordinary timber?
It has a planed surface and a precise spike-groove connection, which ensures a tight fit and minimal heat loss.

45. What is the difference between dry and wet timber?
Dry timber (humidity up to 18%) does not deform, suitable for quick finishing. Damp (natural humidity) requires prolonged shrinkage and control.

46. What sizes of timber are available?
Standard cross sections: 160×160, 180×180, 200×200, 220×220 mm. Individual sizes are available according to the project.

47. Is the core of the wood used?
Yes. We use core boards in the production of glued beams to avoid cracks and stresses in the material.

48. Where is the wood harvested?
We use wood from the northern regions of Belarus — dense, slow-growing, resistant to external influences.

49. Is humidity control carried out?
Yes. Each element is checked with a moisture meter before, during and after drying. This ensures the stability of the geometry.

50. How are the ends of the beam protected?
The ends are treated with a special compound against cracking and rapid moisture absorption — especially important in the off-season.

51. What is the difference between chamber-drying timber and natural moisture?
Chamber drying allows you to precisely control humidity and avoid deformations. Such a bar can be immediately used for finishing.

52. Is antiseptic treatment of wood mandatory?
Yes. Even with dry material, we additionally treat wood with antiseptics to protect it from blue, mold, and insects.

53. How environmentally friendly is the glue in the laminated timber?
We use polyurethane adhesive of the European standard without formaldehyde — it is safe even for children's institutions.

54. What is a double profiled timber with insulation?
This is a technology in which two layers of timber are connected to the insulation between them. Thermal efficiency increases without loss of naturalness.

55. What is an LVL bar and do you use it?
LVL is a glued veneer plywood. We use it in structural elements (beams, floors) where high strength is needed.

56. What class of wood is used for load-bearing structures?
We use grade A (first) and higher, without cracks, resin pockets and curvature. All wood is certified.

57. Is it possible to use larch?
Yes, but it is heavier and more expensive. We use larch for exterior decoration, terraces, balustrades, steps.

58. What is a "zero cycle"?
These are site preparation works: marking, excavation, foundation construction. We perform a full cycle with geodesy and design.

59. Is it possible to use timber in combination with brick, stone, metal?
Yes. We design combined houses: wood+stone, wood+concrete, wood+glass. It all depends on the architectural design.

60. What is a "thermal tree" and do you use it?
Thermal wood is wood treated with high temperature to increase its resistance to moisture and bio—contamination. We use it in facades and terraces.

64. Do you build foundations in peat or swampy areas?
Yes. We use elongated piles, reinforced grillings and geotextiles. Each solution is developed individually.

65. What should I do if the site is on a slope?
We design retaining walls, step foundations, or piles of varying lengths. Terracing of the plot is also possible.

66. Is it possible to build a house on sandy soil?
Yes. Sand is one of the best soils with the right density. We use strip and slab foundations on a compacted sand cushion.

67. Which foundation is the cheapest?
Svayny is the most affordable and fastest to install. But it is not suitable for all types of soil and structures.

68. How long after pouring can you start assembling the house?
Under normal conditions, after 7-10 days. Concrete gains a full set of strength in 28 days, but when using concrete additives, the time is shortened.

69. Do I need to insulate the foundation?
Yes, especially with a slab or ribbon base. We use XPS (extruded polystyrene foam) on the base and under the sole.

Yes. We develop projects according to earthquake-resistant standards (Eurocode 8) and supply houses to regions with increased activity (for example, Italy).

171. Is it true that a wooden house is short-lived?
This is a myth. With the right technology, high—quality wood and regular maintenance, the service life of a wooden house exceeds 300 years, just like a stone house.

172. Do wooden houses necessarily crack?
Cracks are possible in logs or raw timber. In glued beams, cracks are minimal and do not affect the structure — this is a natural feature of wood.

173. Is the timber rotting?
Not if it is dry, treated, and properly mounted. We apply antiseptics and moisture protection at every stage.

174. Can you hear every movement in a wooden house?
High-quality installation and sound insulation of the floors minimize sound conduction. We use professional acoustics solutions.

175. Do rats and mice like to live in wooden walls?
No. There are no cavities in glued beams and dense structures. Animals will not be able to get inside with proper construction.

176. Does a tree light up quickly?
Modern impregnations and compliance with regulations reduce fire risks to the level of a brick house, and much higher than a frame one. We apply European fire protection standards.

177. Is the house "breathing" — does it mean it is being blown?
No. "Breathing" means that the wood regulates the humidity of the air. Insulation, gaskets and sealants eliminate drafts.

178. Is it difficult to insure a wooden house?
No. We provide all the documents and specifications that insurance companies accept. The conditions are similar to other materials.

179. Does the beam necessarily shrink?
Only with natural humidity. In glued and dry timber, shrinkage is minimal and does not interfere with finishing immediately after assembly.

180. Does the facade fade quickly in the sun?
Only if it is painted incorrectly. We use paints and oils with UV filters that retain color for up to 10 years.

181. Can't a wooden house be made in a modern design?
Wrong. We build houses in the style of high-tech, minimalism, barnhouse, modern — with flat roofs, glass and metal.

182. Can't you hang heavy shelves or a TV on a wooden wall?
May. We install embedded elements that strengthen the attachment points, or we use special anchors made of wood.

183. Is it impossible to make wet areas in a wooden house?
May. Bathrooms, kitchens, and boilers are designed with waterproofing, forced ventilation, and tile or moisture-proof panels.

184. Can't the house be left without heating in winter?
It is possible — with proper thermal insulation and moisture exchange. We design houses that can withstand wintering in the "anti-freezing" mode.

185. Are wooden houses becoming more expensive due to rising prices for wood?
The price of the tree affects, but not critically. We optimize production, select sections and designs for the budget.

186. Can a house "lead" over time?
If you use low—quality raw materials, yes. We have strict geometry control, drying and gluing eliminate distortions and deformations.

187. Does the timber crack, so it's of poor quality?
Small cracks are normal for natural materials. They do not affect the heat and sound insulation.

188. Can't a house made of wood be built next to a forest?
It is possible and necessary. The main thing is to take into account humidity and ventilation. We design houses for any landscape.

189. Does a wooden house always smell like wood?
Yes, but the fragrance is mild, especially if it is treated with natural oils. This is one of the advantages of living in a wooden house.

190. After several years, does the bar begin to "creak"?
No. With precise assembly and tight fitting of the components, the design remains stable and silent for decades.

191. What is the difference between glued and profiled timber?
Glued — it is dried, glued together from several lamellae, does not shrink or crack. Profiled is one—piece, cheaper, but takes time to shrink.

192. Which is better: a glued beam or a frame?
Glued timber is more durable, more beautiful, and does not require finishing. The frame is cheaper and faster to build, but loses out in acoustics, resource, and fire safety.

193. What is the difference between a house made of logs and a house made of timber?
The log is a classic, natural aesthetic, but it gives a lot of shrinkage and cracks. Timber is more technologically advanced, convenient in finishing and insulation.

194. What should I choose: wood or brick?
Wood is light, warm, and builds quickly. Brick is massive, takes a long time to heat up, requires a foundation and insulation. Wood is more environmentally friendly.

195. Why is glued timber more expensive?
It undergoes drying, gluing, planing, and humidity control. This is a laborious process, but the result is a stable, durable and aesthetic material.

196. Is it possible to build a house with combined technologies?
Yes. We combine timber with stone, concrete, and a frame. This allows you to implement complex projects, facades, and interior solutions.

197. Which is faster to assemble: timber or frame?
The frame lasts longer. The assembly of glued beams takes only 1-2 weeks and does not require complex interior decoration.

198. Where is it warmer to live: in a frame or timber house?
Both can be warm. The main thing is the quality of insulation. But the timber retains heat longer and provides a natural microclimate.

199. Which is more difficult to maintain: brick or wood?
Wood requires preventive maintenance (treatment, painting), but it is easier to repair. The brick is stable, but it requires difficult work if damaged.

200. Where is the best sound insulation?
The timber is thicker and denser — it provides better sound insulation. Additional materials and gaskets have to be used in the frame.

201. What is the seismic resistance of wooden houses?
Very high. Wood is flexible and lighter than stone, which makes it ideal for earthquake-prone regions.

202. Is it possible to build multi-storey houses from glued beams?
Yes. Up to 3 floors — without restrictions. Higher — when designing with metal inserts and observing loads.

203. Who has a higher heat capacity, a bar or a brick?
The tree is taller. It warms up faster and retains heat longer, which saves on heating.

204. Which house retains comfortable humidity longer?
Wooden. It "breathes", that is, regulates the humidity in the room naturally, without condensation and overdrying.

205. Which is better for redevelopment — a frame or a beam?
The frame is easier to adapt, but with good design, flexible solutions can also be thought out in the timber.

206. Is it possible to build a frame house for 100 years?
It is possible, but only with perfect assembly, vapor barrier and the use of high-quality materials. The bar is reliable from the very beginning.

207. Where is it more difficult to carry out electrical work — in a frame or a beam?
It is simpler in the frame (in racks). Channels need to be laid in the timber at the production stage — we take everything into account in advance.

208. Which house cools down faster in winter when the heating is turned off?
The frame one. The bar keeps the heat at the expense of the mass. This is especially important in remote or autonomous facilities.

209. Which is more profitable during construction — timber or brick?
Glued timber is more expensive in terms of material, but faster in installation, does not require finishing, and saves on the foundation. The overall estimate may be comparable.

210. What to choose for a summer cottage and what for permanent residence?
A light beam is suitable for cottages. For year—round living - glued timber, profiled.

211. Do you build baths from glued beams?
Yes. We design and build full—fledged baths - with steam room, shower, relaxation room, terrace — in any size and configuration.

212. What is the difference between a timber bath and a frame bath?
A timber bath is more durable, retains heat longer, and is not afraid of moisture when properly processed.

213. Is it possible to order a sauna as part of the main house?
Yes. We design a sauna or steam room as a built-in room with a separate hood, insulation and engineering.

214. What section of timber do you recommend for a sauna?

FAQ. Frequently asked uncomfortable or direct questions
391. Why is it more expensive at your place than at your neighbor's or on a neighboring website?
Because we use dried wood, European equipment, certified glue, reliable crews and guarantees. We do not cheapen at the expense of quality.

392. Are you sure you won't abandon the project in the middle?
No. We have official contracts, warranty obligations, an international reputation, and thousands of completed facilities.

393. Why should I trust you?
Because we have been building houses since 2004, exporting products to 10+ countries, have our own production facilities, architects, engineers, and do not hide a single contact.

394. How are you better than other manufacturers of glued beams?
Foreigners trust us. We have our own drying plant, German equipment, export quality control, CE certification and flexible service.

395. How much does the cheapest house cost?
The minimum set is from 15,000—20,000 € for a boxed house. But we don't build "just to assemble" — even the most inexpensive project will be of high quality.

396. Why doesn't your timber crack?
Because we use a multi-layer glued structure and adhere to the technology of drying and gluing without haste.

397. Do you give a "kickback" to architects or foremen?
All bonuses are available only through official discounts and loyalty programs.

398. Can everything be done cheaper?
It is possible — due to a smaller area, a typical project, simplified engineering, and reduced finishes. We will select a solution for your budget.

399. What if the construction is delayed?
We specify the terms in the contract. In case of delay, compensation for services. But we almost always fit in.

400. Why don't you build houses out of raw timber?
Because it violates our principle of building with high quality. We don't want customers to live with cracks, shrinkage, and skewed windows a year from now.

Yes. We provide customer contacts by agreement, invite you to guided tours of facilities under construction, and post video feedback.

Because we are transporting a large cargo, certified, in a package. We deliver to Europe, Asia, the Middle East — with all the documents.

405. Why is shipping not included in the house price?
Because it depends on the location, route, currency and season. We calculate it separately, transparently and without extra charge.

406. What if I don't like it?
We approve everything in advance: the project, the facade, the materials, the layout, the color. Nothing will go into production without your final consent.

407. Is it possible to build cheaper yourself?
Yes — if you are a builder, engineer, designer, supplier and foreman all rolled into one. But mistakes often cost more than the services of professionals.

Designing is a separate service. But if you are building with us, we will include the project in the price and take this into account in the contract.

409. Do you have discounts for regular customers or relatives?
Yes. We offer affiliate programs, family discounts, repeat order bonuses, as well as a "house + bathhouse" at a special price.
